Evangelism


Evangelism:

"In the interior city of Chengchow the ‘Bethel Evangelistic Band’ had a very difficult time. The meetings had gone on without noticeable results and the last day came. The Band knew that the hindrance must be with the leaders who seemed quite indifferent. Desperately we prayed, and when hope seems almost gone we were reminded that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years.

He can do wonders in just one day! Our faith took hold on God for the fall of Jericho at the last. And God honored our faith. During the morning meeting one of the missionaries could not restrain his tears and confessed most humbly that he was a great sinner and hypocrite. Then the Holy Spirit fell on the whole congregation and all were convicted of sin and confessed with tears of contrition. At the closing meeting there was no opportunity for preaching. The Holy Spirit was working and people spontaneously confessed their sins and need, or gave joyous testimonies of salvation." – Andrew Gih

~ Moses spent forty years thinking he was somebody; then he spent forty years on the backside of the desert realizing he was nobody; finally, he spent the last forty years of his life leaning what God can do with a nobody! … Dwight L. Moody

~ The brook would lose its song if the rocks were removed…Unknown

Thoughts:

~ We can all humbly say in the sincerity of faith, "I am loved; I am called; I am secure." … Franklin Graham

~ Joy untouched by thankfulness is always suspect…Theodor Haecker

~ The best way to prepare for the coming of Christ is never to forget the presence of Christ. William Barclay

Prayer Quotes

Me - “Prayer is the verbal release of faith – a specific faith for a specific purpose, all based on a specific promise from God.”

 “Prayer is more powerful than habits, heredity, and natural tendencies. It can overcome all these. It is more powerful than the forces that hold the planets in place. Prayer, though it comes from the heart of an unlearned child of God, can suspend the laws of the universe, if such be God’s will, just as the sun stood still when Joshua prayed. There is no other power on earth that the enemy of souls hates and fears as he does prayer. We are told that ‘Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees.’ “- Matilda Andross
